Business Description
Authentic Italian Fare in Downtown Hinsdale!
Located at the site of a former silent movie theater, Il Poggiolo, meaning "The Balcony" welcomes you with the signature red and white striped canopy that graces the entrance way. The interior has been handcrafted per Kleiner's vision complete with an overhanging balcony, rich woods, amber hued resins, and vibrant red upholstery. Famous Restaurateur Jerry Kleiner was determined on preserving this great space while restoring it to its original beauty and creating a design in a way to connect with the local community. The atmosphere exhibits a stylistic, classy yet comfortable feel. Vintage light bulbs and shaded fixtures give warmth to the environment while illuminating Kleiner's photos from around the world. Kleiner's timeless and classic look includes an inviting, and buzz-inducing bar, a vaulted dining room with a view to the exhibition-style kitchen and a more intimate dining area on the second floor that is enclosed by forged steel railings.
Il Poggiolo showcases fresh Italian fare with a modern interpretation of classic dishes including Tagliata con Funghi Misti e Spinaci (wood fired New York strip with mushrooms and spinach), Branzino con rapini (pan roasted seabass with rapini and anchovy sauce), and Chitarra alla Bolognese (handmade spaghetti with meat ragu). The wine list features more than 50 wines from various Italian regions, including 17 available by the glass. Specialty cocktails include the 8th Street Manhattan (with Maker's Mark, Peach Bitters, Sweet Vermouth and House Brandied Cherries) and a Strawberry Balsamic Martini (Belvedere Vodka, Simple Syrup, Lime Juice, Fresh Strawberries and Balsamic Vinegar).
